Hello Steemit!
It is great to finally join Steemit. I am an ever-learning landscape architect and a design enthusiast, not much involved in the tech world but feeling savvy already to be a part of the ever-growing crypto community.
How I was introduced to Steemit: The Story behind Steem Park Project
Currently I am working with Herbert Von King Park in Brooklyn NY for their public programs development. I was seamlessly introduced to Steemit while working with the @hitheryon guys for the Steem Park project.
Steem Park Opening Day with @prufarchy @roychoi @hansikhouse @voronoi
The Herbert Von King Park team had started a park restoration project this year to manage the landscape and public engagement programs. I was getting design consultation from @hansikhouse and @voronoi to share our institution’s vision and this eventually led us to a partnership in launching our first architectural installation project. By funding with crypto, what @hitheryon proved the possibly of intervening the traditional funding structure for public projects.
Before Steem Park....
I have never imaged managing a public project with the support of online blogging community. For some reason the words ‘public and project’ vaguely associate with the government’s budget. @Hansikhouse and @voroni persuaded me that I should start Steemit to continue this non-orthodox design practice utilizing crypto for public projects.
With Steemit, I am going to further explore a way to use crowd funding to re-allocate resource projections for public projects. Steem Park is going to be the test ground for this.
About Me and My Work
For the past 10+ years, I have been living all over the east coast (Baltimore-DC-Boston-NYC) going to school, working and teaching in the field of landscape architecture. I have been working with private and public institutions for design projects from a vacant lot garden design project to city master plans in DC, Baltimore, Boston, Seoul and Monteverde, Costa Rica.

I am originally from Seoul, South Korea and came to the US to go to college and study landscape architecture / urban design. The urban design field is still a relatively new concept in South Korea, where bureaucrats have traditionally been practicing design themselves with contractors instead of bringing in focused professionals and doing work with the public. Landscape architecture also has been considered as more of a horticultural realm of practice, not associated much with architecture. I want to change this and ultimately this decision brought through both undergraduate and graduate school in the US.
Graduate School Days...
Professionally, I started my cultural development office Base 15 Studio to focus on creative growth projects in South Korea. For my last project I worked as a visiting scholar for the UNESCO Creative City department of Icheon City for their cultural heritage city planning project.
Looking Forward
You can use Steemit not only for a social purpose but to get the community on board for discussing a specific topic. I see the platform as a creative outlet that allows different scales of knowledge exchange.
My goal is scale up projects like SteemPark to affect government related developments and really get global communities involved in public projects. I haven’t yet seen a landscape architect on the site yet so hopefully I can provide some interesting and helpful insights!
I’m super excited to join Steemit finally today and pursue my ambitions with the community! Thank you!

STOPWelcome, @mintvilla, I hope you enjoy it here!
I’ll follow you if you’ll follow me; that being said, following is overplayed. Really, don’t you want to follow someone who shares your interests, rather than getting feeds which matter nothing to you.
Here’s what I do, I decided to just follow pretty much anyone; then I don’t offend anyone. Rather than read off my feed, I just select the topics I want and go from there.
One of my favorite topics is the Introducingyourself; here we are all equally vulnerable before being re-shapped by the Steemit world. Steemit is more than blogging, it is preview of a future which is already upon us.
If you want to check out some faucets, check my posts; BEWARE:
